i7 950 and ASUS P6X58D-E... Which RAM??
Hey guys, just a quick question.
I built my current rig in my sig about 3 years ago now and when I was learning about all the hardware back then I don't ever recalling anything saying you had to use a specific ram depending on whether you had an Intel or AMD CPU.
Now I am looking at RAM and I see some of them saying:
Compatibility: Intel P55 Chipset
Intel Core (Socket 1156) Processors: i7 / i5 / i3
Uh whats with that? I thought ram was ram. Are they seriously saying that this ram won't work in an AMD system?
Here is the RAM in question and I have seen it for others too:

Planning to get an AMD 1090t and Asus Crosshair IV Formula soon so I am looking for some RAM. Feel free to recommend some. I'm thinking either G.Skill or OCZ. Corsair seems good but so expensive.
